Abstract

Ustroj i organizacija vojne organizacije jednako su važni ako ne i važniji od njezine brojnosti i
opreme. Vojska svake zemlje postoji kako bi očuvala teritorijalnu cjelovitost i suverenitet svoje
zemlje i kako bi pomagala civilnim institucijama. Vojna institucija stvarala se i razvijala
stoljećima, sve u svrhu pronalaska najboljeg načina organizacije, ali i praćenja napretka u
tehnologiji. Primarna zadaća vojske je rat, a za tu zadaću vojska se sprema kroz obuku.
Obuka je temelj svake vojske i njenog funkcioniranja. Bez kvalitetne vojne obuke nema stručnih
i sposobnih vojnika, zapovjednika i postrojbi. Planiranje, provedba i prosudba obuke temeljni su
alati u stvaranju obuke koja će biti realna, sigurna, točna i provedena na isti način na koji ćemo
se boriti. Kvalitetna obuka će u borbi svesti rizike na minimum, smanjiti gubitke u ljudstvu i
tehnici i naposljetku omogućiti pobjedu.
Ovaj će rad pratiti vojni put britanskog feldmaršala Bernarda Montgomeryija koji predstavlja
uspješnog vođu i kvalitetnog zapovjednika koji je poznavao sve dobitke kvalitetne obuke i
pokazivao veliku brigu za ljude. Montgomery je bio osebujna ličnost, skromnih socijalnih, i još
skromnijih, diplomatskih vještina, no unatoč tome pokazao se je kao izvrstan zapovjednik i vođa.
Dokaz njegovih vještina je lista izvanrednih postignuća ostvarenih u njegovoj vojnoj karijeri.

Abstract (english)

The structure and organization of a military organization is equally important if not more
important than its number and equipment. The military of each country exists to preserve the
territorial integrity of its country, its sovereignty and to assist civilian institutions. A military
institution has been created and developed for centuries. All for the purpose of finding the best
way to organize, but also to keep up with advances in technology. The primary task of the
military is war, and for that task the military prepares through training.
Training is the foundation of any army and its functioning. Without quality military training,
there are no professional and capable soldiers, commanders and units. Training planning,
implementation, and judgment are fundamental tools in creating military training that will be
realistic, safe, accurate, and conducted in the same way we will fight. Quality training will
minimize risks in combat, reduce losses in manpower and equipment, and ultimately enable
victory.
This paper will follow the military journey of British Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery, who
represents a successful leader and a quality commander who knew all the benefits of quality
training and showed great care for the men under his command. Montgomery was a distinctive
figure, of modest social skills, and even more modest diplomacy skills, yet he proved to be an
outstanding commander and leader. Proof of his skills is the list of outstanding achievements
achieved through his military career.
